A lovely, gigantic woman with big round hips and a tight skirt walks down a city street, dwarfing cars and buildings around her.

009: Crush

What kind of person wants to be crushed under a giantess, and what kind of person wants to crush someone so much smaller? Aborigen explores these aspects, and Aphrodite speaks up as a resident rampaging giantess.

    The distinctions you make in this episode remind me of the Indifferent/Intimate axis I came up with as another way to classify Size scenarios. I would put the classic urban rampage (and many Unaware encounters) at the Indifferent end, where there is no personal relationship—existing or sought—between biggo and tiny. Everyone else is abstract; it’s just the POV character interacting with an impersonal environment. As opposed to capital-C Crush, which is closer to the Intimate end of the spectrum, and very personal.

      Great way to think about it. I wish I would have emphasized that Crush doesn’t always have to end in death or destruction.

        Perhaps you could do a segment on “containment,” discussing not only being held immobile, feeling “swaddled,” and being surrounded. Endosoma is a related trope.
